Description: After update to LO 4.3, the DDE-function no longer returns the specified cell content of the target file, e.g. In file "d:\var\Temp\calc\file01.ods", "Table1.A1" the cell content is "DDE element 1". In file "d:\var\Temp\calc\file02.ods", "Table1.B1" file1.ods is accessed with function "=DDE("soffice"; "D:\var\Temp\calc\file1.ods"; "Pos1.A1";0)". Result in "file2.ods": - LO 7.4.2: "DDE element 1". - LO 7.4.3: "" Steps to Reproduce: 1. create destination calc file, e.g. file1.ods 2. Write some Data to Table/Cell e.g. in "Table1.A1" 3. create test calc file, e.g. file2.ods 4. Set in a cell the DDE-function, e.g. "=DDE("soffice";"file1.ods";"Table1.A1";0) Actual Results: LO 7.4.3: Instead of Data of target file/Table/Cell, nothing (sometimes #NV) is shown Expected Results: LO 7.4.2: Data of target file/Table/Cell is shown Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes Additional Info: Version: 7.4.3.2 (x64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 1048a8393ae2eeec98dff31b5c133c5f1d08b890 CPU threads: 2; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19044; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: de-DE (de_DE); UI: de-DE Calc: threaded Downgrading from 7.4.3 to 7.4.2 the DDE-function is working again. Upgrading to 7.4.4: is still broken
